Reaction Steps

100 mg (0.48 mmol) of 1-(5-chloro-2-methylphenyl)piperazine and 300 mg (0.95 mmol) and of 4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-2-(5,5,8,8-tetramethyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydronaphthalen-2-yl)-1,3,2-dioxaborolane are dissolved in 2 ml of THF, 302 mg (1.43 mmol) of potassium phosphate, 3 mg of palladium acetate and 11 mg of 2-dicylcohexylphosphino-2′,4′,6′-tri-i-propyl-1,1′-biphenyl are added. The reaction mixture is degassed a number of times and stirred at 120° C. under nitrogen atmosphere for 4 h, subsequently diluted with water and extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases are dried over Na2SO4 and evaporated. The crude product is purified by means of preparative HPLC and converted into the hydrochloride using methanolic HCl.
